It can be difficult to be approaching your golden years and have a more difficult time riding a motorcycle. For instance, many individuals who suffer strokes or other debilitating events find that it is no longer safe for them to continue riding a two-wheel motorcycle. For this group of people, a trike can provide the stability necessary to continue enjoying the wind in their hair but with a more stable ride.

Another reason why trikes are becoming popular is for the comfort factor. Particularly as people get on in age, even healthy adults can have a difficult time spending an entire day in the saddle. Safety is also an issue that can be remedied with a trike. Older motorcyclists find that riding a trike can help them continue to enjoy the sport well into their seventies and beyond when they may not be able to control a traditional bike on their own merit anymore.

Motorcycling can be a dangerous sport, but the edge of danger also gives it a lot of its charm. But if two wheels have become simply too much for you to handle, switching over to a three wheel trike can help you heed the call of the open road in a safe way for longer.
